    Poor author advocating for gamercide in the year of our lord 84 also bukharin with his mechanical dialectics infecting random scientist into crisis. I wonder also what author would think about flat earthers, because i somewhat sympathetic to the "they dont hurt anybody" but then you get to vaccines, and how do you solve credibility there

    TLDL: They've discussed only introduction, so still no meat of the book meow-floppy

      Ah also funny note about simulation vs reality in the real world, i think thats something that has been plagueing humans for long ass time, feinman also was very critical of some of the students of physics ability to have applied knowledge of equations in general world. Like what does a plane of glass at an angle does to incidental beam of light.

      Maybe podcast hosts are little bit unskeptical in another direction however - simulations in science are frequently done cause experiments cost too much. Checking 1000s experimental conditions is easier with cfd than with as string, yet f1 cars will utilize those strings/smoke to check if cfd haven't shit the bed later
